I'm constructing Merit's M19 Tank Transporter as a Danish version hauling an Achilles tank destroyer. Beside the model, Accurate Armour has a set of turnbuckles, anger chains etc which I bought. I've also bought Tankograd Publishing's TM on the matter for this build too, however, I cannot see how a tank is strapped to the trailer?
I have absolutely no knowledge on this object so please help me


.

Here are some loaded M9 trailers :







You can notice how the vehicles are chained to the trailer.

Two views of a TD loaded on a M9. No chains in the pics, but I guess you just have to connect the trailer tie-down rings to the tank tow points, using small lengths of chain and turnbuckles :





(the towing shackles are missing on the TD hull front..)

Here are the tools used with the M9 trailer :



These pics show a M24 loaded on a M9 trailer. You'll notice some differences in the way the tank is chained to the trailer :

I guess it's up to you now

Thanks for your replies Frency
The shackles etc is pretty much what Accurate Arnour kit contains. As to the tieing down you've provided some reference that'll help me.

Ken, can you provide a link to the AA set?
Thanks, Dan

F.Y.I. Every tank Tech Manual provides a section in the back with recommendations for shipping tie downs.

I would also suggest cross tying (chaining) the vehicle. Left rear trailer shackle to right rear tank tie down and so on.

Here's the link to AA set #A153 (I guess that's the one Kenneth is talking about...) :
